_That_ is a good story to tell. If IBM can find a range of products to 
suit all its needs, then lots of others can too.

I'm nor sure that trickles all the way down tho, with my new 
responsibilities at work (chief guru of Windows, OS X and Linux) I need 
to have Windows, and I was sorely tempted when I saw three commercial 
consumer-grade home ((re|)design|renovation) packages at the local 
computer shop. I need to be able to show people (especially The Wife) 
what new carpets, paint, some landscaping can do to a dump I propose to 
buy, and I don't have any idea of how to do it on Linux.

I'm sure we'll get there, but how does a real estate salesperson shop a 
photo without photoshop?
